A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for 112 quarts of sparkling water and 34 quart of grape juice. How much sparkling water would you need to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice?
How much grape juice would you need to mix with 154 quarts of sparkling water?
How much of each ingredient would you need to make 100 quarts of punch?

1 1/2 > 3/4

x > 9

We clear the value of x:

x = ((9) / (3/4)) * (1 1/2)

Rewriting we have:

x = ((9) * (4/3)) * (1 1/2)

x = (36/3) * (1 1/2)

x = (12) * (1 1/2)

x = (12) * (3/2)

x = 18

you would need 18 quarts of sparkling water to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice

Step-by-step explanation:

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9
